If your decor choices aren't governed by concerns over child safety, then the stark angles and pointy corners of Mirco Kirsch's origami lamp just might land it a home on your desk. It's another flat-pack engineering marvel that assembles in just five minutes with nothing but a few strategic folds.

All of the wiring and the LED bulb come pre-assembled so you don't need any electrical know-how to get it up and running. Just a willingness to carefully follow the instructions, and the patience to see it through to the last step.
